Jackson for a long-form conversation about Martin Luther King Jr. and why his legacy still provokes such strong emotional and political reactions. Chad is an independent filmmaker and researcher whose work returns to primary sources and overlooked voices, and that lens shapes everything we talk about here.He recently participated in an MLK debate that ran for hours, creating space for historical context instead of sound bites and patience instead of performative rebuttals. That debate opens the door into a much larger conversation about history, memory, and how certain narratives become culturally untouchable.We dig into how the Civil Rights Movement is taught, celebrated, and reinforced from an early age, often without room for deeper examination. Chad draws from archival research, period publications, and primary documents, showing how interpretation influences public memory just as much as the facts themselves.This episode is for listeners who value critical thinking and aren't afraid to sit with uncomfortable questions.You'll Learn:[00:00] Introduction[08:52] What triggered Chad to investigate the MLK narrative[17:13] Challenging northern propaganda about slavery[27:40]  Life for black Americans prior to the Civil Rights Movement[44:45] King's upbringing: born into wealthy black elite family, Daddy King's social gospel, and rejecting Christ's divinity by age 12[01:03:13] Why both the FBI and communists wanted the civil rights movement [01:09:38] The aftermath of the Civil Rights Movement [01:17:03] The MLK docuseries structure[01:34:42] The century-long project to separate blacks from Western civilization[01:49:41] Why classism is just another victimization trap[02:08:55] How hip hop culture has negatively impacted the black community[02:22:40] Malcom X and the Civil Rights Movement[02:42:02] The notion that fascism is a reaction to hyper liberalismResources Mentioned:Hatred and Profits: Getting Under the Hood of the Ku Klux Klan by Fryer G.

Today our guest is Kendrick Claxton, Vice Principal at Central Middle School in Kansas City Public Schools. We talk about how positive school culture is built through systems that create belonging, safety, and consistent adult support. Kendrick shares how mentorship, trusted adults, and simple daily practices help students feel seen and supported. He highlights how consistency, not grand gestures, drives stronger engagement, safer schools, and better outcomes for students and staff. In this conversation, Kendrick offers clear answers to questions school leaders are asking every day: A sense of belonging is built when every student has a trusted adult and experiences consistent care. Simple systems like threshold greetings, and student feedback strengthen school culture and safety. Consistency matters more than programs because it creates psychological safety for students and staff. Strong mentorship supports higher engagement, fewer behavior incidents, and stronger academic outcomes.   Learn More About CharacterStrong:  Access FREE MTSS Curriculum Samples Request a Quote Today!

A proud native of Saint Louis, Missouri, Mr. Claxton's journey in education began in the classroom. His experience in the classroom shaped his belief that education is more than just instruction, it is a gateway to opportunity, a tool for empowerment, and the foundation for a brighter future.

Black history is not a past tense story — it's a living blueprint. In this powerful and deeply reflective episode of Life Points with Ronda, we explore how Black survival, Black love, and Black leadership have always been targeted — and how the truth still lives in us today. We go beyond surface-level history to honor what has been endured, what has been stolen, and what has been built anyway. This episode includes a deeper discussion on the assassination of Fred Hampton and the government's fear of Black unity, the heartbreaking truth of Emmett Till and the sacred courage of his mother Mamie Till-Mobley, and why the voice of Malcolm X still speaks to modern Black identity, boundaries, dignity, and liberation. If you've ever felt emotionally exhausted, unseen, or like you're carrying generational weight in your relationships — this episode will bring you clarity, reverence, and remembrance. Because survival is not the same thing as love… and healing is part of Black history too. ✨ Subscribe to Life Points with Ronda for more powerful conversations on healing, relationships, emotional strength, and growth.

Send us a textThe evening starts messy—mics checking, bottles clinking—and turns into the kind of roundtable that makes you want to jump in. We swap theater hacks, laugh at the cost of a refill, then slide straight into memories of soundtracks that raised us: Juice, Poetic Justice, Above the Rim. From there, it's a full-on culture sprint through hip-hop's golden moments and its most eyebrow-raising lyrics, the bars we once shouted that now make us pause—and laugh anyway.We go deep on Black cinema: Friday's unstoppable quotables, Harlem Nights' all-star magic, New Jack City's street iconography, Love Jones' grown romance, School Daze and Do the Right Thing reshaping campus and city conversations. We throw love at biopics that set the bar—Denzel's Malcolm X and Jamie Foxx's Ray—and ask why some performances feel definitive. Expect hot takes, curveballs, and a watchlist you'll actually use all month long: Penitentiary, Uptown Saturday Night, Let's Do It Again, Cornbread Earl and Me, The Fish That Saved Pittsburgh, and more.Sports and spectacle make a cameo. We kick around Super Bowl predictions, halftime hype, commercials worth caring about, and even question who the game is really for. Then it's back to joy: karaoke plans, catfish updates, and the movies on our radar right now. If you need a fast way to build a Black History Month queue, we've got you covered with a mix of canon and cult, heavy and hilarious, glossy and gritty. Hit play for laughs, stay for the list, and leave with five films to watch tonight.If this episode made you argue with your speakers, share it with a friend, subscribe for more, and drop your top five Black movies in a review—what did we miss?Thanks for listening to the Nobody's Talking Podcast.

Join Here: ⁠https://ow.ly/msoH50WCu0K⁠ In the Notorious Mass Effect segment, Analytic Dreamz dives into Rod Wave's surprise Christmas drop "Feed the Streets", released December 25, 2025, as a holdover single ahead of his forthcoming album Don't Look Down (no confirmed 2026 release date yet).The Florida trap-soul artist delivers his signature melodic R&B over minimalist production: finger-picked guitar, classic trap drums, and simple bassline in a tight 2:58 runtime. The track channels personal grief—referencing Key Glock losing Young Dolph and Rod Wave's late uncle—while addressing generational tension, leadership for a "lost generation," and industry power dynamics. Lyrics name-drop Tupac Shakur, Malcolm X, and Suge Knight, framing themes of control vs. independence, distrust, and revolutionary gangster wisdom: "This that gangster shit that Malcolm X was preachin' 'bout / That 2Pac was teachin' 'bout."Directed by Cam Grey, the official music video features private jet boarding, backstage tour footage, and emotional visuals, amassing over 6 million views shortly after premiere (now on all streaming platforms as of January 30, 2026)."Feed the Streets" follows October 2025's "Leavin'" and reinforces Rod Wave's winter release pattern with raw, emotional impact. It builds anticipation for Don't Look Down, focused on avoiding self-sabotage and overthinking success post-breakthrough, including a track titled "Redemption."The single arrives amid the Redemption Experience Tour wrap-up under his new Mainstay Touring company (formed after a $27M+ lawsuit dispute with Grizzly Touring over the canceled Last Lap Tour). Final shows: Atlanta's State Farm Arena (Dec 28 & 29, 2025) and Miami's Kaseya Center (Jan 1 & 2, 2026).Analytic Dreamz breaks down the lyrical depth, cultural references, visual storytelling, and how this positions Rod Wave for dominant 2026 momentum in trap-soul.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/analytic-dreamz-notorious-mass-effect/donationsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Mark Christian Thompson's book, Phenomenal Blackness: Black Power, Philosophy, and Theory (University of Chicago Press, 2022) examines the changing interdisciplinary investments of key mid-century African American writers and thinkers, showing how their investments in sociology and anthropology gave way to a growing interest in German philosophy and critical theory by the 1960s. Thompson analyzes this shift in intellectual focus across the post-war decades, pinpointing its clearest expression in Amiri Baraka's writings on jazz and blues, in which he insisted on philosophy as the critical means by which to grasp African American expressive culture. More sociologically oriented thinkers, such as W. E. B. Du Bois, had understood blackness as a singular set of socio-historical characteristics. In contrast, writers such as Baraka, James Baldwin, Angela Y. Davis, Eldridge Cleaver, and Malcolm X were variously drawn to notions of an African essence, an ontology of Black being. For them, the work of Adorno, Habermas, Marcuse, and German thinkers was a vital resource, allowing for continued cultural-materialist analysis while accommodating the hermeneutical aspects of African American religious thought. Mark Christian Thompson argues that these efforts to reimagine Black singularity led to a phenomenological understanding of blackness--a "Black aesthetic dimension" wherein aspirational models for Black liberation might emerge. Brittney Edmonds is an Assistant Professor of Afro-American Studies at UW-Madison.

Since 2023, life forced me to slow down. Family challenges, job changes, and a season of feeling stuck led me to rebuild myself from the ground up. What I didn't realize then was that God pulled me away from everything so I could truly see everything.In this episode, I talk about living in your purpose and how asking God for direction changed my life. Through books, stories, shows, and real-life experiences, I was reminded that purpose requires humility, sacrifice, growth, and sometimes reinvention.From The Way of the Superior Man, Roots, and The Autobiography of Malcolm X, to lessons from anime, music, movies, shows, and motivation from Les Brown—this episode is about embracing who you're becoming, loving your craft again, and not dying with your dreams still inside you.

Audley Moore mentored Malcolm X, popularized reparations for African Americans in a 1963 essay, and advanced the cause of Black women in both the Black nationalist and civil rights movements. She rubbed elbows with the Mandelas, Jessie Jackson, and Rosa Parks. Once a household name in the mid-20th century, she has fallen out of the history books, despite a career of organizing and activism that spanned a century, her artifacts lost and her archives scattered. But more than 100 years after Moore's birth and 28 years after her death, Ashley D. Farmer has written the first biography of Moore, Queen Mother: Black Nationalism, Reparations, and the Untold Story of Audley Moore. Farmer brings together a decade of research spanning oral history, archival work from Louisiana to New York City, and, of course, reams of FBI documents to paint the fullest picture of this icon's life to date.Go beyond the episode:Ashley D.

Sharing her experience as a Catholic woman living in southern Ohio, special guest Sister Shannon joins Rev. Terry Williams for a discussion about bodies, belovedness, and boldly claiming a living faith. As a faithful Roman Catholic believer who has experienced dating, single motherhood, and now marriage, Sister Shannon reflects on the meaningfulness of being a pro-choice person of faith who trusts other people to make choices about their own bodies while expecting the same trust from them in return. Lifting up her lifegiving encounters with our partner organization Catholics for Choice, Sister Shannon discusses her journey with finding solidarity and wholeness among the majority of Roman Catholics who support reproductive freedom (no matter what the church's hierarchy has to say!)

We're the most educated generation of women in history. We're choosing ourselves in ways our mothers couldn't. And we're being punished for it. If you're feeling anxious, confused, or like you're being pushed back into a box you fought to get out of, you're not imagining it. There's a pattern. A system. And once you can see it, you can navigate it differently. Anna Malaika Tubbs (PhD, 2x NYT bestselling author of The Three Mothers and Erased) breaks down what we're actually up against and, more importantly, how to survive it while choosing yourself anyway. This is about recognition, strategy, and hope despite knowing the cost.

In this updated and revised edition, James DiEugenio dissects the new Oscar-nominated film, The Post, and how it disingenuously represents the Pentagon Papers saga, to the detriment of the true heroes of the operation. The story of the film stems from the failed attempt of Academy Award–winning actor Tom Hanks and producer Gary Goetzman to make Vincent Bugliosi's mammoth book about the Kennedy assassination, Reclaiming History, into a miniseries. He exposes the questionable origins of Reclaiming History in a dubious mock trial for cable television, in which Bugliosi played the role of an attorney prosecuting Lee Harvey Oswald for murder, and how this formed the basis for the epic tome.JFK: The Evidence Today lists the myriad problems with Bugliosi's book and explores the cooperation of the mainstream press in concealing many facts during the publicity campaign for the book and how this lack of scrutiny led Hanks and Goetzman—cofounders of the production company Playtone—to purchase the film rights. DiEugenio then shows how the failed film adapted from that book, entitled Parkland, does not resemble Bugliosi's book and examines why.This book reveals the connections between Washington and Hollywood, as well as the CIA influence in the film community today. It includes an extended look at the little-known aspects of the lives and careers of Bugliosi, Hanks, and Goetzman. JFK: The Evidence Today sheds light on the Kennedy assassination, New Hollywood, and political influence on media in America.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-opperman-report--1198501/support.

They say, "all good things must come to an end"! On this episode, Amber and Erika bid farewell to Season 11. We start by reflecting on the last seven years and Broke-ish's journey to 11 seasons, including Delina's departure and Amber's journey from guest to co-host. Next, we discuss the looming government shutdown and the Democratic Party's decision to strike a deal with Republicans to seemingly end it. We then pivot into how Minister Malcolm's teachings offer insight into this situation and our current political climate. His work and pedagogy served as the inspiration for this season, and we celebrate his anti-capitalist convictions, repudiation of America's sham democracy, and clarion call for Black unity. Filled with gratitude, love, and respect for our formidable ancestor, Malcolm X, we say goodbye to Season 11 inspired and motivated by his life and legacy. Homework: Get in community with likeminded people—pool resources, read books, discuss ideas and shared values, develop and implement community improvement plans, and encourage each other!

Dave Franke shares the journey that most people could never imagine living through. Growing up in California, Dave became involved in the skinhead gang lifestyle at a young age, pulled in by identity, belonging, and survival. That path led him into some of the hardest jails and prisons in California, where violence, politics, and racial tension were a part of everyday life. Over time, Dave began questioning everything—his beliefs, his identity, and the world he thought he understood. He eventually renounced the skinhead lifestyle, determined to break the cycle and find a new purpose. After rebuilding his life and establishing himself in a stable career, he took a dramatic turn few would ever see coming: he went to Mexico and worked alongside law enforcement in operations targeting drug cartels. #LockedInWithIanBick #RealStories #PrisonStories #TrueCrime #CartelStories #SurvivorStory #ChangeYourLife #StreetToStrength Thank you to BRUNT & PRIZEPICKS for sponsoring this episode: Brunt: $10 Off @BRUNT with code LOCKEDIN at https://www.bruntworkwear.com/lockedin #bruntpod Prizepicks: Visit https://prizepicks.onelink.me/LME0/IANBICK and use code IANBICK and get $50 in lineups when you play your first $5 lineup!

In Part Two of Clint's conversation with Shane Snow – award-winning journalist, entrepreneur, and best-selling author of “Dream Teams: Working Together Without Falling Apart” – the focus turns from what makes a great team to what makes a team truly high-performing. Shane explores the concept of “cognitive friction” and how constructive conflict, when handled with humility, is a catalyst for innovation rather than a barrier to it.The two also talk about the dangers of groupthink, the myth of culture fit, and why benevolence, not brilliance, is the real foundation of trust. With stories ranging from Steve Jobs' bathroom placement to Malcolm X's intellectual transformation, Shane explains how great teams cultivate shared thinking, mutual growth, and meaningful disagreement.. This is the second part of a two-part conversation.Topics Covered:What cognitive friction is and why teams need it to innovateHow leaders can separate disagreement from personal conflictWhy “culture fit” is overrated but “culture add” is essentialThe unexpected power of benevolence in building trustMalcolm X's reinvention and the courage to change your mindHow to proactively guard against groupthinkThe challenges of building high-performing teams in hybrid and remote workWhat the phrase “let's explore that” can do for your team cultureLinks:Shane's website - https://www.shanesnow.com/Shane's LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/shanedsnow/Shane's book, “Dream Teams” - https://amzn.to/4qz7M4f

Check out the collection of fidgets Team Shiny loves! We gotta be able to handle hearing people talk about us, even when it's triggering and hard, because it can ultimately show us where the work is. And maybe you can be an expert on soething without having it yourself (like ADHD) but perhaps it requires a sense of curiosity, empathy, or some kind of introspection that recpognizes your lane, your scope, and your own biases? From anthropology and sociology to X-Men and who is Magneto and Charles Xavier, David and Isabelle meander through what it means to be an ally and also set up some solid recent hyperfixations.---We gotta tolerate hearing people talking about what they think about us, including people who have lots of degrees and expertise, and also know that each person doesn't have the answers. Maybe it has to do with conversations that people have about us without us ADHDers? Then again there are journalists, who don't have expertise but who can report on the data they get. David names that there are good and bad journalists, and there is critical thinking. How much about people's ADHD ‘expertise' includes interpersonal work and understanding about attachment, relationships, your own identity. Like, if you're an expert on ADHD and you're not friends with people who have ADHD outside of your work (if you yourself don't have it)—something to look at? David names that as therapists, we have this debate about multicultural approaches—do you need to have a white therapist to work with white clients, a Black therapist to work with Black therapists? You need to know your lane and your expertise. David's own therapist is not an expert in ADHD. And neither is Isabelle's. They know to ask us questions, can ask “how does this relate to ADHD?” We might be the person with ADHD that helps them better understand that. Allies don't want to get rid of parts of you, they want to help parts of you. An ally is different than a researcher, Isabelle wants to name that you need to be enough of an ally to a topic and be curious. In undergrad, she studied anthropology and archaeology, and it's a blend of super specific science and also lots of educated guessing. She remembers learning about participant observation in anthropology, that just by observing a culture or a group you are impacting the group. It's way more about noticing what your own biases are. David's own background in sociology, the idea of intersectionality. David didn't really think about ADHD or neurodiversity as a culture until college. He's a big comic book fan and he loved the X-Men. They're trying to hide their mutant powers to not be exploited by the government and the X-Men are trying to help these mutants and take them to saving. Charles Xavier and Magneto were portrayed to be iconic people. Magneto was Malcolm X while Charles Xavier was based on Martin Luther King, Jr. It's two different portrayals around protecting yourself—do you get violent and active or passive? Maybe the mutants are a great metaphor for neurodiversity as well as the civil rights war—if you have been marginalized you can have empathy toward other people who are marginalized. It's not so personal, people do things to us that they do to other marginalized groups. It can also signify that we have a culture. It would be if everyone says they have a pile of unfolded clothes that threaten your identity, your pile of mail—-culturally both David and Isabelle are both connected to the plan that they didn't want to leave it there. When we connect about parts of our culture. Isabelle and David so appreciate this conversation. Isabelle names asynchronous processing—she can't just off the cuff rattle off her ideas and also needs time to talk it out, externalize, and think about things beyond the initial moment or conversations. How important it is for us to keep having these conversations. Isabelle wonders if David is like Charles Xavier. He wishes he could be Charles Xavier. Isabelle might be Charles Xavier. Because maybe she loves or identifies with Patrick Stewart so much. So maybe David is Magneto—in the comic books they were best friends, and he was like “they'll never learn, we need to protect our people” whereas as the other is like “don't give in to our aggressive urges.” David needs to shout out: Dungeon Crawler Carl. Not wearing any pants, the cat jumps out of his house trying to get the cat out of the tree, and Carl can then go on an 18 level dungeon crawl and can save the planet earth. The audio book is a treasure, David is a big fan of role playing games, he consumed all seven books in less than three weeks. Isabelle names why cats get stuck in trees, their claws go the other way so they get stuck—but big cats can go backwards. Isabelle mentions an enneagram book that she really appreciates. She was hooked on Borders and loved it as a kid and would keep trying to have someone explain me to me, and one of those books was on the enneagram (which makes David feel like he went to the bathroom during learning fractions and never picked up on it). And she mispronounced it and would read the book at people. Because tell her she's neurospicy without telling her she's neurospicy.Stephanie Sarkis is an ADHD expert who also has ADHD  X-Men and more on Patrick StewartThe American Psychological Association vote on 'homosexuality' being listed as a diagnosable mental disorder in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual (DSM) happened back in the LATE 80's (WHAAAATTTTT? yes).--there is a long history to depathologizing sexual identities, deeply impacted by tons of activism and advocacy.

Malcolm X was one of the most influential – and, sometimes, divisive – figures of the civil rights movement in the United States, a political activist whose approach proved both powerful and controversial. Speaking to Matt Elton, Ashley D Farmer discusses his life, times and legacy, and highlights some of the figures who shaped his worldview.

Drawing upon interviews, correspondence, and nearly 2000 pages of never-before-used prison records, Malcolm Before X is the definitive examination of the prison years of civil rights icon Malcolm X. The book was a Kirkus Nonfiction Book of the Year for 2024, a Spectator best book of the year, and a finalist for the 2025 ASALH book prize. In February 1946, when 20-year-old Malcolm Little was sentenced to eight to ten years in a maximum-security prison, he was a petty criminal and street hustler in Boston. By the time he was paroled in August 1952, he had transformed into a voracious reader, joined the Black Muslims, and was poised to become Malcolm X, one of the most prominent and important intellectuals of the civil rights era. While scholars and commentators have exhaustively detailed, analyzed, and debated Malcolm X's post-prison life, they have not explored these six and a half transformative years in any depth. Paying particular attention to his time in prison, Patrick Parr's Malcolm Before X provides a comprehensive and groundbreaking examination of the first twenty-seven years of Malcolm X's life (1925–1965). Parr traces Malcolm's African lineage, explores his complicated childhood in the Midwest, and follows him as he moves east to live with his sister Ella in Boston's Roxbury neighborhood, where he is convicted of burglary and sentenced. Parr utilizes a trove of previously overlooked documents that include prison files and prison newspapers to immerse the reader into the unique cultures—at times brutal and at times instructional—of Charlestown State Prison, the Concord Reformatory, and the Norfolk Prison Colony. It was at these institutions that Malcolm devoured books, composed poetry, boxed, debated, and joined the Nation of Islam, changing the course of his life and setting the stage for a decade of antiracist activism that would fundamentally reshape American culture. In this meticulously researched and beautifully written biography, the inspiring story of how Malcolm Little became Malcolm X is finally told. Learn more about your ad choices.

In the world of Black radical politics, the name Audley Moore commands unquestioned respect. Across the nine decades of her life, Queen Mother Moore distinguished herself as a leading progenitor of Black Nationalism, the founder of the modern reparations movement, and, from her Philadelphia and Harlem homes, a mentor to some of America's most influential Black activists.And yet, she is far less remembered than many of her peers and protégés—Marcus Garvey, Malcolm X, and Muhammad Ahmad, to name just a few—and the ephemera of her life are either lost or plundered. In Queen Mother: Black Nationalism, Reparations, and the Untold Story of Audley Moore (Pantheon, 2025), celebrated writer and historian Ashley D. Farmer restores Moore's faded portrait, delivering the first ever definitive account of her life and enduring legacy.Deeply researched and richly detailed, Queen Mother is more than just the biography of an American icon. It's a narrative history of 20th-century Black radicalism, told through the lens of the woman whose grit and determination sustained the movement.
